Real estate developer Joseph Barry co-founded Applied Housing, a company that played a key role in revitalizing Hoboken in the 1970s. Unlike large-scale demolition and redevelopment, Applied focused on rehabilitating existing buildings into affordable housing, which helped stabilize the community. Barry will discuss how his company, alongside federal initiatives like the Model Cities program, contributed to Hoboken’s resurgence during a time of economic struggle, and the long-term impact of these efforts on the city’s growth.
